Original Request:
I tried to create a syndicated account for the RSS feed https://blogs.akamai.com/atom.xml
When I do so, I get the error "The URL you have typed is invalid. Please make sure you have typed the URL correctly and try again."
I made this work by using http instead of https, since the http which then redirects to https. However, Livejournal should support using https for RSS feeds. (The account that ended up being created is akamai_blog.)
